Davis served as the Bears starting tight end for each of the last two seasons but caught just 37 passes for 435 yards and six touchdowns over that span. He has been remarkably healthy as he didn’t miss a game in any of his first five seasons in the league with Chicago.

Davis could be an option to replace backup tight end Leonard Pope who is an unrestricted free agent.

I doubt he’ll play for the vet minimum which is what the steelers are likely to offer, but it sounds like a good fit. He is a good blocker. It doesn’t take much to replace pope either.

Hands of cement…couldn’t catch a pass if you handed him the ball! Good riddance.

so the steelers are interested in a guy whose main attribute is he has been healthy the last 5 years? he has hands of stone but he has not missed a game so let’s give him a million bucks? great just do not expect him to catch the ball or block other than that he is a great tight end!! sibning this guy is not the way to improve on a 8-8 record guys!

Who said anything about him being a stud? With Miller out for a while, and possibly losing Pope, they need someone to play tight end. I find it extremely amusing how every move the Steelers make is wrong, but the bloodletting going on in baltimore makes perfect sense.

I get your frustration, but relax it is the usual raven rants of the fan boy…he represents himself not the good fans of Baltimore which there are many …just not on these threads. We just get those who have been swimming in the shallow end of the gene pool for years. Be happy they live in Baltimore and it is far away.
